Now that Robin has said they will leave West Blue and head to the next target sea area.
Rob naturally wouldn't refuse.
After pondering for a moment, he said, following his own plan:
"West Blue has been our base for long enough! Next, let's prepare to cross the Calm Belt again, enter the New World, and then navigate to North Blue from the Calm Belt on the other side. How does that sound?"
Hearing this, Robin nodded and said:
"I have no objections!"
Then, both Rob and Robin looked at Uta, who was six years old and eating.
Rob reached out and rubbed Uta's little head:
"What about your opinion, Uta?"
Hearing Rob's question, Uta raised her head, with a hint of confusion in her eyes.
She tilted her head:
"What opinion?"
Seeing her confused look, Rob showed a helpless and doting smile, then explained his plan to leave West Blue and go to North Blue.
After listening to the plan, Uta smiled:
"I have no opinion either! Ni-chan and onee-chan can decide!"
Rob nodded, still smiling:
"In that case, let's prepare later, and we will set sail tomorrow morning!"
Hearing Rob's sailing arrangement, both Robin and Uta agreed.
The next day.
Near noon—
On the calm sea of West Blue, the Angel was sailing straight towards the Calm Belt and the New World.
And this time, there was no need for Rob to catch another sea monster to pull the boat across the Calm Belt.
"Sure enough, it can be repeated and improved!"
On the deck of the Angel, Rob's face was full of satisfaction:
"After the second ultimate upgrade, the Angel has not only greatly enhanced its previous capabilities but also officially gained a soul or a Klabautermann! Additionally, a submarine mode was added, along with two combat modes!"
"It also transformed the weapon system and power system that previously needed special energy into a new system that can use ordinary seawater. This gives the Angel unlimited energy!"
"This ship has officially become our fourth sailing companion."
Indeed—
After a long time, Rob's fifth talent, Extreme Sublimation, recovered again. This time he chose to upgrade his ship, the Platinum Angel, which led to the birth of the Klabautermann and many new functions!
The current Angel, apart from not being able to fly, is truly an all-powerful ship.
Although the external appearance of the Angel hasn't changed, it can completely abandon the canvas and use a power system equivalent to endless energy to sail!
Additionally, when entering combat mode, the Angel can automatically attack and fight without the control of Rob and the others. The original Coke cannon and the current seawater cannon are also quite powerful.
It can be said that the Angel is the fourth companion of Rob and his siblings. It is an excellent companion in terms of support and combat effectiveness. Most sailing tasks can be entrusted to it.
"I leave it to you to observe the situation at sea!"
Touching the rudder of the Angel, Rob said with a please, then turned and walked to the cabin.
After Rob left, a looming phantom with a pair of white wings on its back, short hair at the ears, and a bumpy figure appeared for a few seconds at the rudder position of the Angel, then disappeared.
This angel-like figure that appeared for a few seconds is the Klabautermann of the Angel, or the soul born from the Angel!
After a month.
The three siblings crossed the Calm Belt twice on the Angel, also traversing the waters of the New World, quickly approaching the North Blue waters!
On this day—
On the deck of the Angel, Rob is shirtless, showing his lean muscles.
He strode forward and punched repeatedly. Just as he was fully committed when swinging a sword, Rob was equally focused when practicing punching!
Similar to his sword skills, after honing his skills to the ultimate level, Rob's physical skills gradually reduced from the apex skills he had mastered to simple punches and kicks.
Just like his sword technique, which has reached the level of an unpretentious single slash, few people in the sea can resist its power. Rob aims to train his physical skills so that a normal punch is enough to crush most opponents! (T/N: My man trying to be Saitama)
In terms of sword skills, he created the pirate version of "Phantomless Blade". In terms of physical skills, Rob also wants to make his fists the pirate version of Saitama-sensei. (T/N: I spoke unnecessarily)
Achieving this level isn't easy and will take time!
To improve his strength, Rob mainly focuses on sword skills, physical skills, and Haki.
As for the Rumble-Rumble Fruit ability and its development, although he continues to develop it, most of the time, Rob actually considers the Rumble-Rumble Fruit ability as a means of enchanting and auxiliary power! Or, to put it another way, it is used to stimulate his own body, constantly enhancing his first talent - born strong!
Of course.
The Rumble-Rumble Fruit after the sublimation is indeed quite powerful. For example, Enel needs the assistance of Thunder Cloud to activate the two ultimate moves, Heavy Thunder and Thunder Welcome. With his own ability, Rob can easily activate them.
He also developed his own Rumble-Rumble Fruit moves—
Not to mention the semi-adult General Thunder, he also has an advanced version of General Thunder's full body - Thunder Emperor, and the strongest move - Thunder God's Judgment - Narukami!
If we only talk about the development progress of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, it cannot be said to be slow.
It can only be said that the focus of his training hasn't been inclined toward the Rumble-Rumble Fruit!
Just as Rob finished practicing his boxing seriously for an hour and stopped, a gust of sea breeze blew slowly.
"Um?"
Feeling the blowing sea breeze, Rob raised his eyebrows:
"Is it windy? Is North Blue here?"
They had been in the Calm Belt, and now the sea breeze indicated they had arrived at North Blue.
Soon, the sea wind grew stronger, and even the sails inflated again. Knowing that Rob and his siblings preferred leisurely and unhurried sailing, the power system of the Angel automatically shut down, starting to sail with the sails.
The speed of the entire ship immediately slowed down.
"Did we arrive at North Blue?"
At this moment, Robin, dressed in cool clothes, and Uta, wearing a small skirt, came out of the cabin. After feeling the sea breeze, Robin asked Rob happily.
He nodded with a smile.
Picking up Uta who came to his side casually, Rob said:
"We arrived! Hahaha... Next, there will be new adventures and trips! Are you looking forward to it?"
After hearing Rob's confirmation, Robin licked the corner of her mouth:
"I'm really looking forward to it! I hope there will be more historical Poneglyphs here in North Blue! When I was in West Blue before, I found too few historical Poneglyphs!"
Compared with the historical Poneglyphs found in the Grand Line, the ones found in West Blue were surprisingly few!
Hearing Robin's words, Rob smiled:
"Then you can look forward to it! But now, we need to find the nearest island and town, replenish our supplies, and take a rest! We've already sailed at sea for a long time!"
Both Robin and Uta nodded in approval!
They were also getting bored of sailing for a long time and needed a break.
Two days later.
The port of a large island in North Blue.
Clatter—
The Angel sailed into the port slowly and docked steadily on the shore. After the anchor was submerged in the sea and the ship was secured, the figures of Rob, Robin, and Uta appeared on the deck.
"Finally arrived at the island," Rob said, stepping off the deck and onto solid ground. He expressed his heartfelt emotion, "Being on a boat for a long time, sailing on the sea, I really can't stand it!"
Robin and Uta joined Rob, agreeing wholeheartedly:
"Ni-chan is right!"
Rob smiled, looking expectantly at the town ahead:
"Let's go! Let's take a stroll in the town first, then settle into a villa. We'll rest on this island for a while. I don't want to continue sailing for the time being."
Hearing this, Robin and Uta nodded again. They had just disembarked and felt a bit unsteady and light-headed from the long journey at sea.
Stepping forward, Robin hugged one of Rob's arms while Uta held his other hand, and the three siblings walked directly into the town.
At the same time—
In the port, some special personnel hiding in the shadows carefully observed the Angel and the three siblings. After confirming their identities, their expressions turned serious.
They whispered amongst themselves:
"That's the Platinum Angel, no doubt about it! And there's the youngest little girl with two-toned hair—'Little Diva'—Uta. I can't be mistaken, I'm her fan!"
"In that case, isn't that boy 'the World's Greatest Swordsman'?"
"Hiss—the 'World's Greatest Swordsman' has come to North Blue! This news must be reported immediately!"
"This town is under the control of the Donquixote family. Could the arrival of the 'World's Greatest Swordsman' be connected to 'Heavenly Yaksha' Donquixote Doflamingo?"
"..."
